“I don’t want to start a fight.“ She sighed in defeat. 

“I would have lost everything! And Clara? You could have left with us. Chris, Cater, Quinn… The pack.“ Nora eyes flashed as she took a step closer. “Roy. I don’t want to argue. We both know where it ends. Please.“

“I’m not trying to.”

“I lost everything.” He said plainly, not reacting to her eyes. “What about Clara? I couldn’t have. Ren was 15. You can’t just ask someone that old to up and change everything. To live in her shifted form nearly constantly. She wouldn’t have been happy, Nor.”

“I have no idea what you’re talking about.“

“I personally handed you a list of schools and everything we would have needed to raise her in Africa.“ Nora’s inner cat bristled. “That… Has everything to do with everything… But you aren’t a stranger.“

“Nora.” He felt the frustrated edge in his own voice and tried to hold it back.

“You didn’t want to raise her, if you did you would have stayed. You wanted just me, and I couldn’t be just me at that point.” He looked at her dumbfounded. “You not trusting me has everything to do with that? That thing you said was done 17 years ago?”

“Roy…“ Nora came to a full stop and made a show of panting for the humans jogging and walking along the same trail. “We made our choice and I never held yours against you. What else is there to talk about?

“I loved you, and I still do, I just wanted to come first for once.“

“Catching up? Actually discussing you all moving here without giving me a heads up? What all this means?”

“I had a daughter to think about.” He sighed feeling it slip back into conversations that had long been buried. “That’s not what this is about. I love you too. I just want to know if you trust me still, or if I’m as good as any of stranger walking down the street now.”

“I’m glad you know that.“ She laughed, slowing down to a jog. “I didn’t think we had anything to talk about beside the horrible weather.“

“Really? You show up after 20 years almost and there isn’t anything you think we should say?”

“Nor...”

“Why are you following me?“

[royalllen]

“Because I want to talk to you. But I’m not fast enough to catch up to a cheetah.”

“Thank you,“ Nora blushed. “You look handsome as ever.“

“Chris didn’t tell you we were coming?“ Nora stumbled over her words. “I would have called ahead if I knew. I wouldn’t have came back into town like this. I’m sorry. It’s Chris. Of course he didn’t tell anyone.“

“Thank you.” He nodded awkwardly, rubbing a hand along the back of his neck.

“Still don’t think I’m out of the dog house. He probably thought’d be funny,” Roy craned his neck around the venue, “but I don’t see him here yet.”

    “They’ll be good to go in just a few minutes, I want them bigger so that there’s more room for the carvings.” 

“Sounds good. You’re the one in charge here. Which ones should I grab first?”

“What? Is the face lace too much?“

[royalllen]

Roy finally gained some of his wits back to him, and stopped staring in awe after a few moments. “You look beautiful.” 

“And like you’re very much not in Africa.”

    “So, the pumpkins that are further back are good to go, the ones here need a bit more growth.”

[royalllen]

“Well all these pumpkins are gonna need to be used in the next half hour, might want to pick up the pace man.”

“Congratulations?“

“Nora will be glad to hear that…“ He said with his voice dripping in sarcasm.

“She’s happy.” He offered in return.

“Yeah? Uh- how is she?”

[blccdyrcse]

   “There’s been an influx of humans lately, is that worrying anyone else?”

[royalllen]

“Why do you think Clara’s been walking the borders?”

“This face is the face of someone trying their hardest to care. And it’s not working.“

“I can truly see the effort.”

[royalllen]

chris-thealpha-beltran‌:

“I know… How is she?“

“She’s good...” He let out a sigh. “Got engaged about 3 months ago. Alliance leader in Vancouver.”

“He’s a wolf.”

    “Oh good, makes that easier on me.”

“I’m glad.”

[royalllen]

brotherreturn‌:

   “I cannot tell you how much I do not like you right now.”

“Don’t worry, I feel it.”

[royalllen]

brotherreturn‌:

    “Nah. I’m pretty sure you’re just evil.”

“And you’re just lazy. Now go talk to your sister.”

[royalllen]

brotherreturn‌:

    “You are evil.”

“No, I just know how to play the alpha game. You forget I used to be in Clara’s position.”
